OA727: No, Dominion Did Not Just ‘Walk Away’ From Half a Billion Dollars

Today, Liz and Andrew go out on a limb and discuss reasons why the Dominion v. Fox defamation trial scheduled to start today was postponed for a day. Along the way, they break down Fox’s latest motion for “clarification” and what it means for the network that brought us Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, and Donald Trump’s insane claims of a stolen election that they knew to be false.
